[edit] Photos

It is requested that a photograph or photographs be included in this article to improve its quality, if possible. Wikipedians in Victoria may be able to help!

If anyone has some good photos, the article needs one or two. skorpion 07:11, 15 May 2006 (UTC)

Months after this request, I've finally got around to taking some photos of Wodonga. I'll trawl throught them and upload some this week. Blarneytherinosaur talk 06:38, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

I've put two up. I'll see if there are any others that are worth putting up. If there is anything specific we need a photo of, I should be able to take one with a bit of notice. Blarneytherinosaur talk 01:58, 26 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Unreferenced nickname

I have removed the following from the opening paragraph: "Wodonga is also commonly referred to as "The Dong" by its residents." I've been about the local area for a while, and I've heard Wang, Yak and Tangam, but not this one. Anyone else? Blarneytherinosaur talk 01:58, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
